In your chat with fans on artistdirect, you said you have no problem with fans recording concerts and trading such recordings. Did the consulting company that found 335,435 users trading Metallica songs check to make sure that they're not blaming anyone for trading bootlegs?
The centripetal force of a spinning object is perfectly balanced. The coriolis force due to the fact that the spinning object is moving around the earth's axis is also balanced.
In Linux documentation, I've often seen a bad explanation of something or thought of a better example, but I'm hesitant to try to make suggestions. I'm afraid that I'll come across as some kind of anal-retentive perfectionist, or that I don't appreciate the hard work that went into the current version of the docs. What's the best way to make suggestions for small or even large changes or corrections in documentation without offending the author?
I've actually had this happen with a bottle of Molsen Ice. A friend and I put 4 bottles in the freezer, and took 2 out in 20 minutes. The other 2 waited until intermission (hockey game). We were afraid they might be frozen, so we checked them carefully before opening. Normal beer, whew! I then opened my beer, and started pouring, but nothing came out. We looked in, and it was all ice. With the other beer, we opened it and observed carefully. It started freezing when we disturbed it. The lime juice in the Corona probably did the same thing.
This is a case of a super-cooled liquid. It was the high pressure that allowed it to get to a lower temperature without freezing in the first place. Once the pressure is released, any disturbance will allow the freezing.
You can do a similar thing with a super-saturated solution. One example is making rock candy. Boil water and put *lots* of sugar in it. Then let the sugar-water sit out in a glass container. Put popsicle sticks in it (not touching the sides of the jar), and sugar crystals will grow on the sticks, once the water cools.
CNN Headline News just had a blurb (6:25PM ET 1/11) covering "DVD pirating". They displayed one of the Linux DVD pages while talking about pirating and deCSS. I'd think that page-owner has a good libel (slander?) case against CNN for defamation of character. Heck, at the time, Linux DVD was the only thing readable on the screen, so the whole Linux name is degraded. They'll probably loop around and show it again at 6:55PM ET. Maybe they'll put up the transcript on their webpage.
They're going to try again a little before 5PM EST (2200UTC). They say they think it went into safe mode upon landing, or that the antenna wasn't pointed in quite the right direction.
Forcing users to change their passwords is nice, but for a medical site, people will only use it when there's a problem. For non-chronic cases, it may be months or even a year before the user goes to access the site again. How can password changing and infrequent use be reconciled?

The proprietary OpenIPO system?
I'm confused.
